Screens & Widget Studio
Build custom dashboards in the App without writing code, then pin them to Home.
Paths:
- Settings → Widget Studio — visual layout editor
- Settings → Dashboard screens — list, pin, and manage screens
- Home → Dashboards — open a pinned screen
Dashboard screens
- Open Settings → Dashboard screens.
- Tap Add screen.
- Enter a Screen name → Create & design (opens Widget Studio).
- Use pin / edit / open actions on each screen card so a dashboard can replace or appear on Home.
Home tip text: “Pin a full dashboard screen to replace Home. Design layouts in Widget Studio.”

Example widgets on a greenhouse demo layout: Temperature Gauge, Humidity Gauge, Grow Light toggle, LED Dimmer, Pump Switch.
Bind widgets to your kit
Widgets bind to sensors and actuators that already exist on the device. Map a gauge to Temperature, a toggle to Grow Light, and so on. Catalog hardware definitions are not created here.
Tips
- Design at Phone first if you mostly use mobile, then check Desktop.
- Keep one clear “everyday” screen pinned to Home.
- Viewers may open dashboards but cannot edit layouts.
note
Widget Studio is for using your devices. If a sensor or actuator is missing from the bind list, ask an Admin/Owner or support — not every member creates hardware catalog types.
